Of course this is up to everyone and can change as needed.
I’m not sure how well this site will work for what we are
doing but I’m willing to give it a shot and see how it goes.

For the next time we get together, how ‘bout everyone have
a character ready. Doesn’t HAVE TO be the one you plan on
using for the campaign and can change if needed. If you
don’t get a character made before hand we can whip one up
right away. Then I’d like to fumble through the rules to
see if we can get the hang of this 4th ed thing. Maybe do
a simple quick dungeon crawl sans DM screen.

Also everyone that posts backgrounds here or at least
writes them out and gives them to me, will start out with
a magic item as a reward.
